Francesco Paolo LoVecchio, better known as singer Frankie Laine, would be 108 years young today. Born in the old Italian neighborhood of Chicago, there wasn’t a style he didn’t touch: pop standards, jazz, rhythm & blues, gospel, folk, easy listening, even country. "That’s My Desire" was his first hit, reaching #4 in the US in 1946.
This was so good to listen to..I love it.
